Who else has the fever?

[kglacken]

I dont know what it is, maybe the nice weather  or the fact that im starting to see more animals out and about, but i am getting the itch for elk season to start. Its only 72 days away for me and I will be taking off for a week to hopefully connect on a nice rosie bull. I just wanted to see who else is getting the fever or the itch to start hunting again? And share some success photos and stories, just to get everyone even more fired up!

I know what your sayin...been putting alot of miles on the bikes and been seeing alot of elk...its fun this time of year hearin the cows and calves goin nuts!

Nah no fever for me yet...  Wait a second, I think I just twitched.  It's coming on right now, you started it darnit!!!  Now I won't be able to think clearly until September rolls around...

In a very bad way. I drew my first bull tag this year which is making the symptoms worse then a normal year.

I have it BBAAADDDD!!!!  Building Calls is killing me because I am constantly blowing on a call so I am always reminded of it (my neighbors think I'm nuts).

Saw a dandy bull the other day with GREAT 3rds.  Pretty sure it is the bull I let go on last years hunt (@10:33 on the video he had decent thirds last year).

Pretty sure I have the fever after I pack up my gear from the previous season....it doesnt seem to leave me.

Gotta love hearing an elk bugle in the morning light, always brings a smile to my face.

I have had it for more than 30 yrs. I can't seem to make it go away.

My name is Bean Counter, and I am an elkoholic.

I can keep myself up at night thinking about the hunt.

Thank your lucky stars you live in an OTC elk state.

I got it bigtime today!  There were 5 branched bulls in my pasture this morning and all were 4 pt or better and still got a long way to go!!!!

[Ghost Hunter]

More than any previous year!  Benn watching elk low in the valley and hills near home.  Still waiting for roads to open so I can take the first hike into the Margaret back country.
